After destroying the village, Dallas shoots Au Co and restrains Austin, preventing him from healing her. Afterwards, they debrief their superior office at the base. Austin, however, does not disclose his ability in the debrief, making Dallas look irrational. After punching Austin for not telling the truth, Dallas is discharged from the Army.

After returning home from the Vietnam War, Linderman briefly remembers a couple experiences from Vietnam. He remembers his fellow soldiers dying as they slept in the military outpost, having been shot in bed by Viet Cong soldiers. He also remembers himself seeing Au Co's dead body on the ground with another woman embracing her in grief.

Notes
